Orewa College community. Always whānau.

Where past students, current families, staff and supporters come together, connected by a shared pride in Orewa College.

The Orewa College Alumni & Friends organisation exists to keep that connection alive and put it to work, channelling the passion, skills, and generosity of our community back into the school and the rangatahi who call it home today. We believe that a strong community around a school makes the school stronger. 

Every connection made, every dollar raised, and every hour volunteered flows back to benefit the students at Orewa College today.

Who We Are

  • We are alumni who still feel the pull of the place that shaped us. 
  • We are parents & caregivers who want to do more than drop off and pick up. 
  • We are teachers, coaches, volunteers, and friends united by a shared pride in Orewa College and a desire to give back.
Whether you graduated decades ago or your child just started Year 7, there is a place for you here.


What We Do

We connect, we support, and we celebrate. Through events, fundraising, mentoring, and community initiatives, the Alumni & Friends organisation works alongside the school to:

  • Enrich student experience — funding resources, scholarships, and opportunities that go beyond what the school budget can provide
  • Connect generations — linking current students with alumni for mentoring, career pathways, and real-world insight
  • Build community — hosting events that bring whānau together and strengthen the bonds between past and present
  • Honour our history — celebrating the people, stories, and achievements that make OC what it is

Get Involved

There are many ways to be part of Alumni & Friends; attend an event, run one, volunteer your skills, or sponsor a team or scholarship. Whatever time or talent you can offer, it makes a difference.
